This is way overdue. I blame swopping computers and not having the one with photos and an internet connection at the same time for a while.
Namibia was amazing and incredible and beautiful and unbelievably stressful. Being stuck in a confined space with my mother for 10 days was not easy. I have a lot of respect for her, but we are just too different and just don’t get along.
Getting to know my grandmother as an adult rather than grandbaby was interesting too. She certainly is incredible for someone nearly at 90.
It was also an opportunity for me to observe two very different women and how they do things: my mother with her ‘take-it-or-leave it’, straight out attitude, and my grandmother who is soft and gentle and ladylike (very much a girl of the 1920s/30s). While I am neither of them, it was like watching an excerpt of ‘how to win friends and influence people’ as I could see what they did and how people around them responded.
I was planning on writing about Namibia in detail but I am rushed with work and I can’t quite get my head around the amazing expanses of nothing and the extreme beauty of the place so I will leave you with some pictures instead.

Those are beautiful pictures! I am mentally planning my next holiday and Namibia is a strong contender!
Gorgeous pics! Now I want to visit Namibia even more than before (but not just TSC's family farms, which are way way down South).
Holy cow I have to go there soon, and will use your pictures as my tourism pamphlet. I think it will blow my mind.
Wow! I might ask for one of those pictures so I can blow it up to hang on the wall. They are all so beautiful...
Stunning pictures! I love the 1 of the 2 seals - it looks like the one is telling the other off!
Fabulous pictures!
I came here after trying to post to Spearthemighty, who follows your blog. I can't comment there because it says it has active threats. Do you have any way to tell him?
